1 Joshua’s teachers were real actors. What is good

about this?

2 Have you ever acted or spoken in front of a big

group of people? How was it?

Now that we’re back in school, everybody’s

talking about what they did during the summer.

Some of you probably went to a resort

or went sightseeing with your family, and most

of you probably spent time at the pool with

friends. But not Joshua Wills. His summer was

very different. Let’s fi nd out why.

Joshua, you didn’t have a normal summer

vacation this year, did you? What did you do?

No, I didn’t. I went to a theater camp for teenagers. Our

teachers were real actors from the theater and TV. They

taught us all about acting – you know, how to develop a

character, how to project your voice and use your body.

It was a lot of fun.

Did you put on a show?

We put on a musical about a detective. I played the part

of the detective’s assistant. We had one rehearsal every

day for a week and then three performances. A lot of

my friends and family came.

How did it go?

It was great, but on the fi rst night, in the fi nal scene, I

forgot my lines. Everything was going really well and

then suddenly I couldn’t remember anything! Everyone

in the audience was looking at me, thinking, “What’s

wrong? He’s not speaking. He’s not even moving!”

Were you panicking?

I wasn’t panicking. I was just frozen! But in the end,

I remembered the lines and it was all OK.

Do you want to do more theater?

Defi nitely! I don’t want to stop. In fact, I’m writing a play.

It’s more diffi cult than I expected, but I’m really enjoying

it. I want to put it on at school.

Are you looking for any actors?

Of course! Why? Do you want to join us?

Maybe! It sounds like fun!

CONNECTED CLOTHES

Anyone who has been reading my blog for a while knows that I’m a huge fan of technology in fashion.

Here are my latest discoveries.

1 We’ve all seen watches that measure how much we move or sleep, but what about a T-shirt? Over the last few years, scientists have been developing clothes that can record information about our heart rate or breathing and that can help us stay healthy. Most people have a denim jacket. But have you ever seen a denim jacket that can play music or send instant messages? Well, scientists have designed one that can. You just have to touch the sleeve and your music starts playing!

2 Scientists have also created clothes with sensors that take our body temperature and circulate warm or cool air through the material so that we never feel too hot or too cold. Special clothes for astronauts or emergency service workers have been using this technology for years, but now companies have created similar materials for everyday clothing and shoes. Great! No more hot, sweaty feet!

3 Now there are even smart clothes that produce energy while we’re wearing them! Scientists in South Korea have created a material that turns movement into electricity. So you can charge your phone while you’re doing exercise or just walking around! That’s smart!

4 Finally, if you haven’t been following my updates on 3-D printing, check out these trendy designs. My favorite is the high-heeled shoes. I love the fact that each design is individual and that one day we’ll be able to design and print our own patterned or plain clothes and shoes at home.
